Excerpts from a recent letter to a friend:

"I've long said that we should give Israel a week's notice and nuke the rest of the region. Then after the glow dies down, Israel can stretch it's legs! I regret that George got so bogged down in Iraq before turning inward on Iran and cleaning out Ahmadinejad while we were on a roll! And then do a deep-cleaning on his buddies in Saudi as well!

I'm amazed at all of the pols who use phrases like "stability in the region" and "lasting peace". THE MIDDLE EAST HASN'T SEEN PEACE IN 5000 YEARS!!!

And I am a real stickler for calling things what they are (I think the whole abortion debate would be an easy fix if we just called the procedure "kill your baby")... Each time GW calls Islam "a religion of peace" it reminds me that he's a politician. (Here's my chance to recommend a book to you! "The Truth About Muhammed" by Robert Spencer--my current audiobook for my walks on the beach--it really tells it like it is! They'll be issuing a fatwa against him soon...)

And I'm convinced that NO politician can be trusted with a second term!!! GW is practically working for the DNC since the last election, our Governator turned into a Shriver after the last election. Nixon... oh, you know... and even for the dems--wasn't Monica Lewinsky in Bill's second term? Nobody except Reagan has had a successful second term I hear, but I can't vouch for it, because I was in my democrat party fog at the time... (D'Oh!)

I don't know anything about Thompson, other than my natural distrust for actors since Schwartzenegger. And I doubt that he is electable. I'm liking Romney, despite him being a Mormon--at least we'll know that he's really about family values, and he will have pro religious-liberties sensibilities.

I just hate finding myself in the position of siding with Pelosy, Klinton & Boxer in thinking that it is time to let the Iraqis destroy themselves in private. Unfortunately, the way things have gone the last 4 years the nation has lost it's support for the effort, and I don't forsee anything that would bring it back.
